Abstract

We proposed a metal-oxide-high-k-oxide-silicon (MOHOS) memory structure using a high-k Tb2TiO5 as a charge trapping layer for nonvolatile memory application. The structural and morphological features of these films were explored by x-ray diffraction, transmission electron microscopic, atomic force microscopy, and x-ray photoelectron spectroscopic. The Tb2TiO5 MOHOS-type memory annealed 800 C exhibited a large memory window of 2.9 V and a low charge loss of 15 % after 10 years. These results are attributed to the higher probability for trapping the charge carrier due to the formation of a well-crystallized Tb2TiO 5 structure with a higher dielectric constant.
